TOPIC 1
Five Keys to Financial Success
Evan Press CFP®
A longtime, somewhat successful, investor and financial advisor, Evan shares his five keys to financial
success. The five are ones that anyone can learn and apply. No need to have a degree in finance or an
MBA. Rather, Evan has learned, and will share, how your “mindset and behavior” are more important
than your ability to calculate a Sharp Ratio. Whether you are just getting started as an investor or have
been at the game for twenty years, you will pick-up useful ideas that will make you a better investor.
Evan Press is a retired U.S. Diplomat and Certified Financial Planner, CFP®, and now serves as
President of the L.A. Chapter of AAII. He can be contacted at EvanLPress@gmail.com .
TOPIC 2
Can you solve it? The “math” of retirement
Chris Gomberg
How confident are you about your retirement. Sure, you have the money side covered. You have been
saving and investing for close to 40 years. But life, and especially retirement, is about much more than
having the money to pay your bills. Join us to hear Chris discuss the fears and myths about retirement.
How to reinvent yourself and engage with your community. And rather than take a haphazard or
spontaneous approach, it really is worth the effort to have a systematic approach. Learn how to have a
winning transition from work to retirement, and how to take care of the rest of your life.
Plenty of time for Q & A.
Chris Gomberg is a California licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) and Certified Professional
